Crafted exclusively for The Whiskey Reserve, this limited-edition release of Dunville’s 1808 explores the rich, layered influence of Tawny Port cask maturation. With an outturn of just 443 bottles, this is a rare, small-batch expression that unites classic Irish whiskey character with the opulent warmth of aged Portuguese fortified wine.


Tawny Port, matured oxidatively in seasoned wood, is known for its nutty depth, dried fruit complexity, and polished sweetness. That heritage is fully expressed here, lending the whiskey a luxurious texture and a spectrum of dark, dessert-like notes while preserving balance and structure at a confident 46% ABV.


On the nose, aromas of stewed red berries, fig jam, and sultanas rise first, followed by toasted hazelnuts, caramelised sugar, and a gentle thread of oak spice. Hints of cocoa powder and orange peel add brightness and refinement.


The palate is rounded and velvety, opening with flavours of plum compote, black cherry, and raisin bread. Layers of toffee, roasted almonds, and milk chocolate develop mid-palate, supported by soft vanilla and warming cinnamon. The Tawny Port influence brings a refined oxidative note — walnut, polished wood, and dark fruit — giving both depth and elegance.


The finish is long, warming, and indulgent, with lingering notes of dried fruit, cocoa nibs, sweet spice, and a gentle tannic grip that keeps the sweetness in perfect check.


This is Dunville’s 1808 in a richer, more decadent register — a whiskey of depth, texture, and after-dinner sophistication. With only 443 bottles available, it stands as a true Whiskey Reserve exclusive, ideal for collectors and perfectly suited to pairing with dark chocolate, aged cheddar, or a contemplative final dram of the evening.
